Learning Styles
I accommodated verbal, visual, social, and auditory learners. I had a presentation for the visual learners. I personal spoke about the ideas to help auditory learners and verbal learners. I demonstrated to the students how to make diagrams in order to help visual learners. Lastly, I had the students collaborate with one another to accommodate social learners.
